Journal ArticleDOI

Bone marrow cells adopt the phenotype of other cells by spontaneous cell fusion

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that mouse bone marrow cells can fuse spontaneously with embryonic stem cells in culture in vitro that contains interleukin-3, which, without detailed genetic analysis, might be interpreted as ‘dedifferentiation’ or transdifferentiation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Hepatic maturation in differentiating embryonic stem cells in vitro

TL;DR: The data indicate that the in vitro ES differentiation system has a potential to generate mature hepatocytes and has also been found useful in analyzing the role of growth factors and intracellular signaling molecules in hepatic development.
Journal ArticleDOI

Embryonic Stem Cells Proliferate and Differentiate when Seeded into Kidney Scaffolds

TL;DR: It is suggested that the extracellular matrix can direct regeneration of the kidney, and studies using seeded scaffolds may help define differentiation pathways.
Journal ArticleDOI

A Heterogeneous Expression Pattern for Nanog in Embryonic Stem Cells

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that Nanog can directly repress Gata 6 expression through its binding to the proximal promoter region of the Gata6 gene and that overexpression of Nanog reduces heterogeneity during ES cell maintenance, suggesting methods to promote homogeneity during ES cells maintenance.
